incomplete

5. What steps he uses to solve the problem on the video?
First he suppose
d that sides has had a length of a=3 and b=4;
Then he substitutes
d the values in the formulate; formula
He said that a² + b² = c²;
The value that c² is 9 + 16;
After with mathematical procedures
subject?? concluded that c=5 (this is the value of the hypothenuse)
Good
